Tanya Eklund: What I Had to Unlearn to Grow
from The VOW · host Tanya Eklund
There are so many things I had to unlearn to become who I am today.One of the biggest was believing that life is always fair and that people will always act with kindness and integrity. I grew up seeing the world through a lens of innocence, but adulthood showed me that fairness is subjective and everyone operates from their own perspective.I also had to unlearn that everyone will like you, that putting yourself first is selfish, and that everything you were raised with has to define your future.These shifts didn’t come easily, but they created something better: clarity, boundaries, and self-trust.If this resonated with you, leave a review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, or share in the comments what you’ve had to unlearn in your own life.
